Williamstown

Well I hope no one is offended 
but this tickled my fancy!!
Plastered on a window of a derelict building.


So it was a day with Kristian & Mario scheduled on Monday.
I suggested a trip to Williamstown.
After a slow drive past my Grandparent's old place in Yarraville,
then past where I spent my first 2 years in Seddon
off we went.


The old Time Ball Tower, which basically acted
 as a chronometer, for the passing ships
by dropping a ball at 1 o'clock.


Down to the old jetty where the HMAS Castlemaine 
a Corvette was tied up as a permanent display. 


Assume the pose you three!!!


The big grey thing is the new Navy Canberra Class
helicopter landing ship,
Steve Irwin ( Sea Sheppard )in the middle & "Kookaburra"
Kevin Parry's Americas Cup 12mt. in front!!!


Cannon on the front of...


And then this beautiful water fountain in the park,
this was put up in 1875..


Then we'll be off to Kristian & Mario's for dinner.
